It has been said that "what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas" however, I hope that what happened this last week at the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society South-West Regional Conference gets spread around the country!

Amanda and I were privileged to speak to a number of regional representatives that participated in raising money for the research that saved my life in Philadelphia. We hope they were able to see that the work they do does make a difference and in a very personal way.

Relaxing in our hotel room after the speech.

Amanda spoke first and already had the room applauding before I began. We shared how we met, the shock of being diagnosed with cancer, and the revolutionary t-cell treatment I took part in. I even played a couple of songs on my guitar. I was asked to post the lyrics to the song I wrote entitled, Miles 2 Give:

Last night I witnessed love and
charity

I wondered how I would return the
kindness I’d received

I found it’s not a debt I’m to repay,
but rather how I choose to live each coming day
